I LOVE systemd, flatpaks, appimages, wayland, and pipewire. The desktop environment feel way more managed!

Sure, wayland is not complete yet (HDR), flatpak is missing some things (some portals), but the whole ecosystem is way more mature than before.

This is from someone who used init.d scripts, apt-get and dpkg, x.org, and alsa/pulseaudio/gstreamer.

I agree that Wayland is better than X, but only because X is worse than Satan. If you like X11 better than Wayland, you don't know anything about X.

Same. It just felt way better than plain old sysvinit and X11.

Liking X11 is illegal here.

What is gstreamer doing here? Isn't it just a library?

I just remember the problems it gave me back in the day. So much so it earned a spot there.
